Product description

Charlotte Perriand designed Chaise longue Indochine in November of 1943, during her term as Director of Crafts in Vietnam. Confined to bed toward the end of her pregnancy, she designed a chaise longue with armrests that allowed her to continue to read, write and design. The first specimen was in rattan, due to the impossibility of finding steel because of the Pacific War. In collaboration with Pernette Perriand-Barsac, Cassina recoups the original intuition of the pioneer of modernity and produces Chaise longue Indochine in painted tubular metal. In a crescendo of lines, three curved segments joined by fasteners intersect, designing the aerodynamic silhouette of this piece of furniture where the armrests are the natural continuation of the base. The chaise longue’s cradle is equipped with elastic webbing that provides support to the seat, optimising its cosiness. A topper with removable upholstery envelops the structure. Its soft padding is made of recycled PET fibre, punctuated by a quilted motif, stitched from edge to edge.
